My washing machine doesn’t need Wi-Fi.
It's a feature that I would regret.
I just need a way to wash my pants.
Not show them to the Internet.My oven doesn't need Wi-Fi.
I'd value that least of all.
It's already shielded from getting too hot.
It doesn't need another firewall.My fridge does not need Wi-Fi.
That is just not useful for me.
I want a place to chill my food.

My microwave is clearly best.
It's never sent a SYN request.It might cook food unevenly
but doesn't need DHCP.No updates needed, no network jack,
for nation-states to come and hack.If power blinks, the clock will flash,
but remote attacks can't make it crash.When your app's site decides to close
I'll still enjoy my burritos.@neil @gumnos got a new inverter microwave (soooooo good!) that doesn’t even need the rotating plate any more, and even at the same 100% as the older one is more energy-efficient (mug of milk takes less seconds to get warm enough), and it’s offline and "dumb".
No need to accept unevenly warmed food.
It’s also a Goddess-sent for cat food, not just things like leftover noodles.

@neil I live in an apartment building where the washing machine (1 for the whole building) has WiFi/Bluetooth. You have to pay to use it and if you don't use their proprietary app and pay with credit card (it does not accept coins or swipe/chip cards, only contactless) it charges you 50 cents more

Not chat via TCP/IP.@neil in belgium we have a vendor that built his own hardware (washing machine etc), without any wifi etc.
and they sell quite well it seem.

@neil I wouldn’t mind all these things having WiFi if it was along the lines of OBD-2 in a car. Just query the internal state of the device. But no, it’s used as a conduit for enshittification.

Not chat via TCP/IP.@neil They don't _need_ those things, no - and the fridge I still wonder about - but I just upgraded to an LG induction unit and I've got to admit, the preheated notifications are actually really useful as we're not always within earshot, and it gets you over there and putting stuff in the oven quicker so it's not sitting there wasting electricity. The washer and dryer notifications aren't bad either so we don't have to keep going down and checking, especially if we're say, waiting for a blanket so we can go to bed or something.

Not chat via TCP/IP.@neil both my washer and dryer have wifi. Never even set it up.

@bloor Same with our dishwasher. I don't see the point.

@neil I guess could, with a big stretch, see some “slightly nice to have”s with laundry equipment. For example it could be cool to have some kind of instant message when wash finishes/dryer finishes or whatever.
But no, dishwasher, can’t really see a case.

> it could be cool to have some kind of instant message when wash finishes/dryer finishes or whatever
It would be cool if it could unload itself and put in the next load!
I'm not sure that I have a need for a notification though - either I am at home and can deal with it (so I don't need a notification to my phone), or else I am not and so couldn't deal with even if I were notified!
